Mutualisms Lab in Barcelona for the European Congress on Evolutionary Biology

September 22, 2025

A subset of mutualists went to ESEB and heard about some great science while reconnecting with fiends and colleagues, both old and new. Aileen, Marleny, and Hassan all presented talks, while Ayas and Frances showcased two wonderful posters. Special congratulations to Frances, who earned a poster award for her outstanding work on beetle–fungal symbioses!
